    The chemistry of the overall team may not be as good as most of us had hoped it would be at this point -

    I will say this - Rupp handled it very decisively and with a big stick -

    However, we have no point guard at this point and without the qb things can be very dicey...

    And no - I don't think that Loe can be the starting point guard at this level and Guyton is just a freshman and he will have to grow into the role -

    What did these guys do to get kicked off the team? I'm assuming it was pretty bad since there doesn't seem to be any chance of them coming back.

    Very bad timing when you consider requests for the renewal of season tickets just went out. It better have been the right thing to do and I hope there's a good backup plan. Too late for a great transfer PG?

    Transfers have to sit out a year, so, yes, I'd say it's too late. White IS the great transfer, just fell short.

    Would've been nice if he had screwed up before our recruiting class was complete.

    Don't give me that crap. Out of all the transfers, White was the one who we thought might have off the court problems (was suspended at Nebraska). Don't try and group all transfers in with this one player. I can just as easily make the point that high school players= problems using your logic.

    Herb Pope-New Mexico State

    Top rated high school player and NMSU best player, not to mention arguably the best player in the WAC-did nothing but get in trouble at NMSU, kept getting second chances and recently just screwed NMSU and transferred to another school.

    I don't know why everybody thinks these guys either a. Have no off the court issues or b. Are as good as advertised. There is a reason why these guys left their last school. It could be anything. Maybe they didnt like the town. Maybe they didnt get along with the coach( which to me is a red flag) or maybe they just aren't that good. I am willing to bet all of these transfers aren't just the type of guys that just wanted to be closer to home etc. I know Henderson was a transfer and was legit. But guys like him aren't the norm

    Every transfer has a reason for transfering. Some might be nothing to worry about. Most probably are.

    You list several reasons for transferring, good and bad. Why would you think it more likely to be a bad reason?

    Rolle transferred because of John Brady (if you followed LSU during his tenure, you can understand why). Cooper transferred to get closer to home. That's it--end of story. Neither one of the guys caused the least bit of trouble at their previous schools. Both of them were very popular with their teammates. Neither of them had discipline issues with their coaching staffs.
